Kangarooing is using overly academic language to try and explain or discuss concepts to someone who may or may not have a background in academia. Kangarooing happens often in activist circles where middle class college educated people will speak in overly academic language, assuming that the rest of the group is also college educated and can understand them.
Kangarooing is also used to obfuscate or obscure the point in an attempt to trick the victim into agreeing with something they may not understand, so that they don't seem stupid.
The term is a reference to an episode of the sitcom "Friends" wherein Joey wrote a letter using the thesaurus section on Microsoft Word for every single word and signed the letter as "Baby Kangaroo Tribbiani".

Judith: "That the power regimes of heterosexism and phallogocentrism seek to augment themselves through a constant repetition of their logic, their metaphysic, and their naturalized ontologies does not imply that repetition itself ought to be stopped—as if it could be."

Kangaroo is the 13th zodiac sign.The dates of that zodiac sign are currently unknown as the only known Kangaroo is Rebenciuc who keeps his birth date secret.Yet we only knows one Kangaroo we know for sure that it is by far the best zodiac sign.It is superior in every single aspect to the other signs.Also,Kangaroos tend to be really fat,have weird fetishes on feet like Cezar Petru Popescu and have crushes on girls who are 50-60 years younger than them.

An Australian marsupial. We usually own about 2 or 3 per family and instead of public transport, and cars, we like to be safe (and prevent green house gases) by taking a kangaroo!
Oh and if you're american, they will kick your ass.
